Dog grooming based in Whiteley, Fareham.
(8)
My wonderful and clever sister has opened her own grooming salon in the Fishbourne, Chichester area. She is highly recommended so if any of you have friends or relatives in that area looking for a groomer, Clare is the person to go to.
I am a dog groomer based in Fishbourne, Chichester, who absolutely adores dogs.
Well this is a bit embarrassing! I managed to give myself stress fractures in both feet running the marathon and they have only been diagnosed this week. So now I’m sporting this highly attractive and desirable footwear for a good few weeks.
Whilst I’m still able to work, I know a few of you have had to be postponed over the last few days and next week, I’m so sorry and I’m so very grateful for the understanding and the care, I will always maintain I have the best customers!
I shouldn’t be disrupting anyone further but I am struggling a bit with the bigger dogs so please bear with me if I need to postpone you.
This is not really how I wanted my marathon story to end 🙄😂 but I still raised an incredible amount of money thanks to you all and I still have my medal, which no-one can take away from me…. Although you probably could at the moment cos I can’t chase after you!!
Thanks for all the understanding, laughing at me, calling me a stormtrooper, a robot etc! It’s making me smile!!

🎊🎊 FUNDRAISING RAFFLE WINNER 🎊🎊
I wanted to try and record this for proof but I realised I’m not clever enough to work out how, so you’ll have to have a screen shot instead!!
Anyway, the wheel picked number 58 which was Emma and Arlo! Hooray!
I’ll message you Emma, to make sure you see this!
Thank you so so much to everyone who bought a square and donated. I have been overwhelmed by your generosity. I really do have the best customers 💜
Hey everyone, I will be drawing the winning number for my fundraiser next week.
It’s crazy how kind you’ve all been and there are only 5 numbers left!
If you’d like one, let me know! It will be amazing to have a full grid!
Thank you all again, I’m so grateful 💜
Hey everyone, just posting an update to the numbers I have left available. I want to draw the winner at the end of the month.
There’s only 19 numbers left!! Thank you so much for all your support, I have never been so grateful and humbled by the donations coming in for the RNID. 💜
Sometimes the photos are enough to tell the story. He’s not even remotely sorry!! 💜💜
It’s always the worst part of our job when we have to say goodbye to our gorgeous customers.
We love them like our own.
This little man captured my heart and I will miss him so much.
Run free Finn doodles, I was so very honoured to be your groomer 🐾🌈🐾
Over half of the numbers have gone! Thank you so much to everyone who has bought a square.
Here’s the numbers still left!
Hey everyone, just posting an update of the grid. There are plenty of spaces still available if you’d like a chance of winning a free groom.
£5 a square. All money goes to the RNID.
It’s tinnitus week this week and it seems like a perfect time to really try and promote my fundraising to help people who struggle with this debilitating condition.
Here’s the link to my fundraising page.

Thank you 💜
Hey everyone, just an update of the numbers still available for a chance to win a free groom!
Thank you to everyone who’s bought a square (or 2 or 3!) so far, I’m so grateful for your generosity 💜
Edit - now posted with the correct grid!! Sorry!!
Hi everyone, I hope you’re all having a good start to the year.
Some of you know that I am running The London Marathon in April for the RNID.
It’s a charity that’s incredibly meaningful for me being profoundly deaf and having tinnitus. It’s an amazing charity and I am honoured to be running for them.
I’m going to be doing some fundraising in the parlour and we’re kicking it off with this!
Each square is £5 and once the grid is full, I’ll draw a number and whoever gets picked will receive their groom for free. (Some of Ria’s old customers may recognise this, cos I stole her idea!! I’ve told her, don’t worry!!)
If you’d like to buy a square, let me know in the parlour or message me and I’ll add your names.
I can take the donation when you next come in or you can donate on my Just Giving page which (I think) is linked below.
Thanks so much for your support, this is a huge challenge for me and I’ve currently started week 4 of training. If I look a bit dishevelled when you come in from now until April, this is why!!

🎄 Hi everyone, I hope you are all well and keeping warm now the temperatures are dropping. Just a quick message to say that I don’t have any more space this year, and my earliest availability is from Tuesday 23rd January.
I just want to take the opportunity to thank you all for your continued custom this year, I am so grateful to have lovely customers and it’s because of you and your wonderful dogs that I look forward to coming to work every day.
I hope you all have a lovely Christmas 💜
Handsome boy Donald was so brave today, he hates the dryer, but today he realised it wasn’t so scary! Such a clever boy! He’s been trimmed nice and short so he can enjoy running through bogs and generally getting himself filthy! 💜
Gorgeous regular Polly brought Timmy with her today. She (and her mum!) are fostering him whilst he waits to find his forever home. He’s the cutest little boy and was so brave experiencing a bath for the first time. Whoever ends up adopting this little one will be so lucky 💜
Such sad news this morning to know we’ve lost a lovely man who did so much for animals.
But I hope it was wonderful for him when he got up there and was greeted by some of the hundreds of dogs he helped over the years, face licks, zoomies and wagging tails. RIP Paul 🌈🐾🐾
Handsome boy Huckleberry was back in today for his groom. He’s such a patient and lovely boy, he made my Friday 💜
Hi everyone, I keep forgetting to update this page. So here’s a ‘before’ photo of Rosie that makes me laugh every time I look at it!! Have you ever seen such a cross Shih-tzu?!
I hope everyone is well and looking forward to the warmer, less muddy weather ahead! 💜
Happy Christmas everyone, I hope you all have a lovely time.
Thank you for allowing me to groom all your wonderful dogs this year, I’m so lucky to have such lovely customers.
I will be back in the parlour on the 10th January but if you need to get in touch before then, you can message me on 07920106085.
I’ll look forward to seeing you all in the new year xx
I love seeing your lovely photos of your gorgeous dogs in their Christmas bow ties! Please keep sending them to me!
Here’s handsome boy Ronnie having a warm up in front of his log burner after his bath. Can’t wait to see you again soon Ronnie, have a lovely Christmas 💜
Christmas has arrived in the parlour. This stunning photo of Winston proudly showing of his bow tie was taken by his dad and I had to share it.
What an absolutely gorgeous boy you are Winston, have a lovely Christmas and I’ll see you next year 💜
Gorgeous little pup Pippa was in this morning for another session which was all about scissor work and getting her used to them around her face and feet.
According to Pippa, today was about stealing my brush, having a root through my shelves, fighting the bed and generally being adorable! 💜
Handsome little Dexter 💜. Can’t resist taking photos of him!
It’s been a golden week this week!
Here’s some of the beauty’s who’ve come to see me. I couldn’t resist adding 2 photos of baby Hugo because he’s just so cute! 💜💜
🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
It’s that time of year!!
Christmas appointments are booking up fast!!
If you want to make sure you’re all booked in, please send me a message. We only have 8 weeks left til Christmas! Where has the year gone?!
🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
Gorgeous little Finn finished his puppy package sessions on Friday and had his first big boy groom. He did so well and sat beautifully for me.
He has been an absolute superstar getting used to the parlour and now takes grooming in his stride. Can’t wait to see you again soon little one 💜
Dexter was in today for a good trim. He’s a gorgeous boy and I have a very soft spot for him. Please excuse the hair on the table, Dexter only allows small opportunities for photos so I grab them when I can! 💜
Handsome boy Frank was back today for a tidy up. He’s back to his gorgeous fluffy self and as usual was such a good boy. 💜
Here’s Lola at the various stages of her groom!! First is when she arrived after finding a muddy puddle! Then looking fabulous after enjoying a towel dry… and all fluffy after her blow dry! Finally looking smart and mud free! She’s such a beauty - even when she’s that muddy!! 💜
Handsome gentle giant Loki popped in for the first time yesterday for a deshed and a bath. He was such a good boy and jumped in the bath when I asked him! He was also extremely pleased to discover that being so tall, his head was at the same height as my treat shelf!!
I can’t wait to see you again you gorgeous boy! 💜
God Bless you Ma’am.
